Dude, that scene about sicilian history between Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken in True Romance is priceless! Great list btw, except maybe for Underworld ... though there is something to be said for Kate Beckinsale in tight leather outfits :)

Great post OP
All I can say is that the Godfather should/needs to be on everyone's list. It's like not having Stairway To Heaven on a top 10 song list |
